The scariest part of root cellars is that they could be anywhere. They could even be IN YOUR HOME RIGHT NOW.

Ok, nm. I'm quarantining my root cellar for the time being. You guys can just come over and we'll have pea soup and eggs. Lot's of eggs. Bring your own suspenders/overalls as I don't have enough for everyone.

Yea I unfortunately had way too much going on last night with the debate and football, etc. I don't really contribute much anyway, I find it difficult to keep up with the speed of the chat while also watching the movie.

Were there any first-time Candyman watchers? Hopefully it won at least one person over.

Yeah I don't think anyone had a bad word to say about it, it's a straight gem of a film.

Man, I love doing the Scream Stream every year but I gotta say I'm glad I only do it 3 nights a week, setting aside like 7 hours of my day to stream internet movies is a little demanding.

Growing up, I knew kids that thought the legend of Candyman was real. I remember a group getting in trouble at school for hiding in the bathroom with the lights out in an attempt to summon him.

I'm actually surprised you feel its worth it for Sunday nights. Do you get enough people in there to make it worthwhile? I'd never be able to stay for both movies because I can't function at work without a full nights sleep(I say as I post on SA from work).

The more I think about it, the more I'm annoyed at myself for missing Candyman. So many scenes that I'd love to witness a live reaction to. The hook through the bathroom mirror scene, the doctor getting killed out of nowhere in the asylum, Helen's husband saying her name 5 times at the end, Helen stepping through the wall to reveal the huge mural, I could go on and on.

I guess Candyman is probably my favorite horror movie of the 90's.

Well, there was some joking about the bad 90s sensibilities in the first half of the film, but then Tony Todd showed up and everything got delicious.

I actually already watched Candyman for my October challenge, and I definitely remember all that 90's stuff. The hot young coed that Helen's husband is cheating with wears ridiculous mom jeans in her first scene for example.

And I'm not sure if its a 90's movie thing, but the academic seriousness that the characters approach urban legends with is great. For some reason Helen is convinced that she'll be totally set career wise if she can just write this amazing thesis on Candyman.

Candyman's great, I'd go as far as saying it's all perfect through the bathroom attack scene. Tony Todd sells the hell out of his role for sure, though.

Yup, in the 90s, every piece of media taught you that college was the key to success, and what your subject was wasn't the point. That's why everyone in that Oregon Trail bumper crop where Gen X and Millennial rubs together were all totally hosed by the time they were done with their higher education. ie before college: Follow your dreams! Anything can happen if you do! After college: Wow, that was a dumb dream. You're dumb. Here's a mountain of debt you can't afford.

Thanks for doing the stream again this year, I always find a few new favorites whenever I tune in, lots of stuff I wouldn't never have expected to like either.

Basebf555 posted:

It was my first watch and it was fantastic. Might be my favorite movie of the bunch this year, but it's got some serious competition with Life Force (which I had never seen not-edited for TV) and Christine (new to me).


BTW, was it Scream Stream last year you showed some sort of Werewolf murder mystery movie? I only caught the very end of it and non of the posters in the OP are ringing any bells for me.

I definitely fall into that group and yea it was a major problem. A big part of it was that, at least in the middle class suburbs, there was very little emphasis on figuring out what you wanted to do for a career, even all the way through high school. Even first and second year of college, there was a lot of advice being given along the lines of "just stay undecided on a major until you magically hit on something you love and then go that route."

Hell, I'm over 30 and although I've been consistently employed, I don't have great career prospects, and I still get people saying stuff to me like "eh, don't worry you're still young. You have time to figure it out." I feel lucky that I at least got used to the idea of working when I was very young, I know plenty people in my age group that have difficulty just getting up every morning and working for 40 hours a week.

Werewolf murder mystery makes me think either Howling 5, or The Beast Must Die! They're pretty much the same plot: Ten Little Indians, only the killer is a wolfman.

I showed Howling 5 in the Sequel Stream, but it's a terrible film. I recommend The Beast Must Die! though, it's really fun and despite some obvious low budget drawbacks and cheesy acting, I really think it holds up. And hey, props for having a black lead in the early 70s who's not a jive-talker from the streets.
